Ya man there huge. Are they just really lanky or is your light too high up

A 400 can be hung 12 to 24 inches from the plant

Lol thank you all for posts. They are just that stretchy, The light has always been within 12-18 inches of them, but the ISS in particular really wanted to hug that lamp lol. The ISS is on the left of my pictures, on the right is the K1.

Hey..
Do you mean that you don’t balance the ph at all?

nice plants!
:wave:

I don't touch the pH at all. Plain tap water, left out for 24 hours, then add the nutrients and water. Seems to be working just fine! And a lot less of a pain than trying to pH balance every gallon. Thanks for the comment!

Here is day 38. enjoy! (the strings are all keeping the buds up, tied to the ceiling of the tent.)

I do the same thing. Don't mess with it, .. I bubble it for 24 hours to evaporate the chlorine, and then I either water with it, or use that set-out water to make teas..

From what I understand (in a very basic, neanderthal way), good, healthy soil will "fix" pH. Couldn't tell you a lick about how it works, but I can tell you that from my experience, it's worked. :)

pH from the tap here is around 7.5-8.0. I'm fairly certain that's not what my plants want, in a perfect world. But it seems to work perfectly. :joint:

Sorry for the delay finishing this thread up, but here are a few pics of the end cut, hope you all enjoy! Ended up with 17 ounces between the two plants. Both are an incredible smoke. Look forward to my next grow please! I will be starting up again here in a week or so. Enjoy!
